Patient Experience Management
With Kareo

Improve patient care and increase practice revenue with comprehensive patient experience.

Your patients are your most important resource

Independent practices have more demands for their time than ever before. When a practice becomes time constrained, one of the first things to breakdown is patient communications. This deterioration of the patient experience can be devastating to your practice when patients aren't properly scheduled, appointments are missed, eligibility is not verified, patient intake suffers, after-hours questions from patients don't get answered, prescriptions don't get renewed, claims can't be followed up, and so on. This culminates into wasted time for providers and staff, a poor patient experience and revenue loss for the practice.

In this patient driven healthcare landscape, an increased focus on patient experience is needed to better manage your precious time, improve care delivery and increase practice revenue. In order to be successful, patient experience management needs to be a responsibility shared by the entire practice. This can be daunting, but recent improvements in technology have made managing the end-to-end patient experience much easier.

Build an Expert Patient Experience For Your Practice

Understanding the importance of providing a positive patient experience is key to your success. It’s time to take a complete view of your patients’ experience at every touchpoint in your practice.

Kareo’s guide walks you through each touchpoint and how technology can help enhance the whole patient experience. The end result? Generate more business for your practice and happier, healthier patients.

Understanding the patient journey

Taking the perspective of the patient to empathize with their journey can be transformative for your practice. Due to the changing reimbursement landscape patients are more selective than ever about their healthcare. In order to respond to this shift practices need to think about the best ways to manage a positive end-to-end patient experience. Breaking the patient journey into a few different categories can make this process more easily manageable.
